Does anyone have a cooler for their XBOX 360? - GoFuckYourself.com

I just got my second Xbox 360.. my first one had over heating issues so I sent it in for repairs.

I am thinking of buying any Intec Cooler for it.

Any other coolers that I should look at or is this a total waste of $25?

Its a waste of money. They actually do more harm than good. In fact, one of them actually made the plastic grille on the back of the xbox so hot that it warped. I was using the nyko intercooler that snaps on the back of the xbox.

Yeah that one sucks.

You should just put your own cooler up there, that doesn't snap in or mess with the powersupply.

I know Paul from ADult Rental got one and claims it works well!

Hey do you have Lost Planet?

I never knew that you could buy a cooler for a Xbox.Do they really heat up and broke after a while ?

That's like buying Porsche Carrara Turbo, without getting the turbo.

That's fuckin ridiculous. So the Xbox overheats without an extra intercooler?

If so, then the product isn't 100%, and microsoft should do a callback on all those things, or send all customers an intercooler for free.

You don't need one of those. Mine works fine without it. In fact, the intercooler saps power from the power cord before it even enter the XBox, no wonder people have been having problems. If you alter the amount of juice going into the Xbox itself something is bound to get fucked up.
